Baked Oatmeal Squares

It's starting to get cold outside (Yay!), which means waking up in the morning and leaving my warm bed can be a challenge. The good news is, I found this recipe and it gives me a whole weeks worth of yummy breakfast goodness- in exchange of fifteen extra minutes of sleep! So make it Sunday night, and store it in an air tight container and just grab and go before work! I used raising and walnuts, but feel free to use any mix-ins that you like! It's really good with cranberry and white chocolate chips, or some dried fruit and pecans!

Ingredients
- 1 cup quick oats
- 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 TSP baking soda
- 1 TSP baking powder
- 1.5 TSP ener-g egg replacer
- 1/2 TSP ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup apple sauce
- 2 TBSP melted butter
- 2/3 cup milk
- 1/4 cup raisins
- 1/4 cup chopped walnuts

Directions
- Preheat oven to 350.
- In a bowl, combine all dry ingredients and stir . In another bowl, mix together melted butter, milk and apple sauce.
- Combine wet and dry ingredients and mix until well combined. Fold in raisins and walnuts.
- Spray non-stick pray in a 6x8 baking dish, and pour oatmeal mixture in. Bake in oven for 20-25 minutes until a light golden brown color.
- Cool completely, cut into 6 squares and store in air tight container. 

Tip: Distribute mixture evenly in a muffin tray for more convenience!

Serving size: 6
